Lakewood Spring intersection death trap claims seventh victim
The Lakewood Boulevard and Spring Street intersection, dubbed a death trap, claimed its seventh victim in four years. Eugene Elmer-Jacobsen, 29, of Whittier, was the latest fatality when his sedan was broadside by an auto, later dying at Community Hospital from a basal skull fracture. Three others were injured, including two Navy men, as drivers said one car ran a red light. Jacobsen’s nearly new sedan, with only about 1500 miles, was crushed.
